Partly granted
The Board denied service connection for sleep apnea but remanded decisions on asbestosis, diabetes mellitus with peripheral neuropathy, erectile dysfunction, and total disability evaluation based on individual unemployability.
The deciding factor: The decision was based on the lack of a current diagnosis of sleep apnea and the need for further medical opinions on other conditions.
